Departing for Great Keppel Island

It is Tuesday evening in Australia.  Tomorrow morning we will finally start our trip up the east coast of Australia.  We have given up on visiting the coral atoll “Lady Musgrave” as the conditions are not right.  Instead, we will undertake a 340 nautical mile, two day passage to Great Keppel Island near Yeppoon.  It is supposed to have great swimming and walks, and a reasonably protected anchorage (unlike Lady Musgrave).  We will head to the outside of  Fraser Island and then inside the Great Barrier Reef at Lady Eliot.    The map below shows the area from Scarborough (yellow icon) to Great Keppel Island (red icon).
